"Cloudy" is the second in the series of weather picture books "Weather
Tales" - a picture book on the topic of meteorology. Their goal is to
educate - bring some frequently mentioned meteorological terms closer to
children, so that they can later better understand and benefit from
meteorological information, especially in this era of increasingly obvious
climate changes and global warming.
The theme of "Cloudy" is cloud. The little girl Vedrana (Claire) helps
children to find questions, such as: "What are clouds? How and where are
they formed? How many are there, and what are their shapes? Which are the
lowest clouds, and which are the highest? What and how do they produce? Can
they be touched? When and how to photograph them?", and many others.
"Cloudy" is not only a picture story, but also has rebuses, anagrams,
crosswords, and even a colouring book.
